My Vision Of Heaven
I stumbled across this video (The ShoeZeum) while spending the endless hours that I do on YouTube. Don't you dare look at me weird, you know love YouTube more than you want to admit or ever thought you would. If you've ever been asked to describe what your own version of heaven would look like, I'm pretty sure you gave it some thought and it [...]
Martz Yields Too Much Power
Let it be known immediately that it takes a lot to get me to write a blog post on a Saturday in the middle of the summer. Unfortunately, today is one of those "a lot" days. The Bears have finally dipped into the wide receiver pool and, much to my chagrin, they signed Roy Williams from a team that had zero interest in keeping him. No, not the [...]
Another Nail In Hendry’s Coffin
In what will unfortunately be the only relevant move the Cubs make at the trade deadline, the Cubs have traded away Kosuke Fukudome to the Indians for minor league “prospects” Abner Abreu and and Carlton Smith. Abreu, 21, is batting .244 with 12 home runs & 35 RBIs with 19 stolen bases at Class A Kingston. Smith, 25, is 2-3 with a 4.50 [...]
Cutler’s Biggest Obstacle Is Martz
I was contemplating making this post solely a "congrats Jay, I'm thrilled that you pushed that coke whore to curb." For everything that people say about Jay Cutler, he seems like a simple, down to earth guy. People hate him because he isn't a media darling, and that he likes to keep to himself. Parish the thought, right? If you know me, [...]
Friends With Benefits Review
No, I didn't see "No Strings Attached" because I am not paying money to see Ashton Kutcher play anything but a pot smoking 70's teenager. So, as you read my "Friends With Benefits" review, I won't be drawing parallels between the two films as everyone is probably doing. I compare Kutcher to mid card WWE bums that are nothing more than time [...]
Get Rid Of Fonzi At Any Cost
I vaguely remember one of my first posts on my website where I listed the worst contracts in all of sports. It was such a horrendously bad list of bums that I only can remember two things. One, that I became nauseous as I researched said contracts, and two, that the Alfonso Soriano deal still infuriated me 3 years after Jim Hendry signed [...]
The Return Of The Wrecking Crew
The 8th and final season of Entourage starts up on Sunday night, and it is sure to leave more questions than answers. At least that's my belief because a movie is certainly to follow, which will put even more money in Mark Wahlberg, Doug Ellin, & the wrecking crew's already bloated pockets. I'm fine with that, as long as the final 8 [...]
The Clown Who Likes Losing
If you want to know just how bad it is for the Cubs, look no further than the situation they face with Aramis Ramirez. One of the main culprits on this lazy "dead ass" team who played like he didn't have a heartbeat for most of this season, is, of course, getting hot when it means absolutely nothing. Ramirez took Roy Halladay deep for his [...]
Vince Still Has It
Just when I thought that Vince McMahon had gone completely soft and become too predictable, the Money In The Bank pay-per-view event happened. As a lifelong wrestling fan, Sunday night's event at the AllState Arena in Rosemont forced it's way into my top 10WWE events ever. Quite simply, it delivered like any great pay-per-view should. For a [...]
C.M. Punk’s “Moment”
It's Money In The Bank Sunday, and I can't lie, it feels like a WrestleMania Sunday would when I was a kid. That's how excited I am for tonight's main event at the best venue the WWE visits on the regular. Having been to countless house shows, most Monday Night Raw's, & 'Mania 22, there is nothing like the crowd and atmosphere at the [...]
